Internet Explorer settings for remote access

Add the required configuration settings to access Federated Directory Server console from a remote system in an Internet Explorer browser, where Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration (IE ESC) is enabled.

By default IE ESC blocks all scripts that are running on a web page. Federated Directory Server loads several scripts before it displays anything on the console. Hence, an IESC-enabled Internet Explorer browser shows a blank page when you open the console. To access the page, you must add sites that host the Federated Directory Server to the safe list of Internet Explorer.

  1. From the Internet Explorer menu, click Tools > Internet Options.
  2. Click Security tab.
  3. Click Trusted sites.
  4. Click Sites.
  5. In the Add this website to the zone field, enter the URL of the Federated Directory Server console. For example: https://myfds.com/fds/*.
  6. Click Add.
  7. Click Close and then OK to close the page and save the settings.
  8. Restart Internet Explorer browser.
  9. Access the Federated Directory Server console in the Internet Explorer browser.
